Because this is the year 2020 and we are having the privilege conversation AGAIN, let’s work the problem while leaving race out of it (which is a form of privilege in and of itself, but I digress).

Ravelry, my favorite place on the internet, just underwent a major site redesign. It launched this week, and was not well received. For a list of problems, check out this thread.

Now, when the changes went live I didn’t love them. I didn’t feel the site needed fixing. I thought that it was, frankly, ugly AND twee.

I had no idea how much the site’s accessibility had been fucked. As far as I was concerned, it was ugly but still useable.
